This is your first actual post — the first piece of ‘meat’ for your blog. Open it and fill it with pre-prepared copy.

Once you’ve done the above, copy and paste the above into a new static page (“About”), edit it here and there, and publish. Add a link into your blog menu for the About.

On the balance of all practical probabilities, it’s easier (and cheaper) to write your own stuff.

This blog updates every Tuesday at 8 p.m. EST (midnight UTC, Wednesday).

If you’re running a hobby-horse blog, you generally don’t pay because then you’d be inviting people to guest-post out of interest.

English is the blog’s language, but other languages may appear occasionally (hopefully with an English translation).

The first placeholder post is typically headlined “Hello, world!” with no content. Leave it alone. This is your blog’s birth certificate. It helps the search engines to ‘notice’ the launch of your blog.

Who your blog is aimed at, or who might be interested

The About page will always be your blog’s most-viewed item and click magnet.

The 3rd placeholder post

I welcome submissions of recipes, stories and photos. Please discuss with me. I am prepared to pay US$1 per word for unique, eye-catching pieces.

You need to understand why you yourself should be doing the writing for your own blog — certainly for the first two years.

Hamas uses 100,000 human shields and no one cares. Israel straps one wounded terrorist to a Jeep to transport him to medical facilities and the world cries. What gives?

Never mind what the Internet is telling you. The starting rate is US$1 per word for a 300–500-word piece (with minimum 3 photos) that’s unique and exclusive to your blog — with a 30%–50% kill rate for submitted but cancelled acceptance.

The biggest mistake any blogger could make is producing a blog that has no voice — no persona, no personality, no flavour and no perspective behind the words.

This is because you’re meant to fill them with pre-prepared copy (text and pictures).

If you succeed, you succeed. If you fail, you fail. It doesn’t matter either way because you still have to do some elementary things.

“What if I’ve already deleted those placeholder posts? What if I’ve posted a few posts already?”

UH-OH…

Your writing doesn’t have to be perfect for a blog. It only needs to be reasonably readable — and reasonably formatted (which you still have to do anyway even for a piece written by someone else).

If you’ve just launched your blog, it should already have 3–6 empty placeholder posts autogenerated by the platform or system.

The second placeholder post is empty. Use it to introduce your blog and yourself.

THE 2ND PLACEHOLDER POST

Every day, around 7 million blog posts are published on the Internet. You’re fighting for attention and breathing space even with a voice.

Just carry on from where you are. Stay on target, Luke.

You can expect to pay up to US$7 a word with experienced writers or bloggers (with 10+ years’ experience) — same as magazine writing rates.

Who you are — you don’t have to disclose your identity, but there must be a person even with a pseudonym (not anonymous) for attracting readers and subscribers

The Ramen Freak is about all things ramen and noodles, Japanese or not. It focuses on traditional as well as “new wave” or “fusion” recipes and discusses protips for creating the “perfect” noodle dish for the noodle aficionado.
